The MRLDS unit requires a separate UL Listed/CSA
Certified 24VAC Class 2 transformer power supply. One
24VAC, 10VA Class 2 transformer is sufficient for up to
three (3) MRLDS units.
Retail Solutions supplies several sizes of transformers
for powering multiple MRLDS units (three or more). Note
that polarity must be maintained when connecting more
than one MRLDS to a single transformer.
WARNING: The MRLDS unit must be always
be powered by either a suitable UL 60950/CSA
Certified power supply that is isolated from line
voltage by double insulation, or an appropriately rated
UL Listed/CSA Class 2 transformer. Failure to follow
the above can result in serious personal injury or death.

2.1
Mounting The Sensor
The refrigeration monitor comprises two basic parts:
the base and the cover. The cover incorporates the circuit
board with the sensing elements.
Proper location of the refrigerant sensor is necessary to
ensure accurate measurement of representative air samples.
1.
Fasten the base to a junction box or other support.
The base has a number of openings to allow for
mounting to various junction boxes.
Mount the sensor:
•
Indoors, inside a room area where air circulates
freely.
2.
Feed the power and signal wires through the rectangular opening in the base (Figure 1-1).
3.
Connect the wires to the terminal connector
located in the base, as indicated in Figure 4-2
and Figure 3-2.
4.
The Modbus MRLDS must be connected to earth
ground. Connect earth ground to the MRLDS
•
On a flat, interior surface.
•
Approximately 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) from
the floor.
Do not mount the sensor:
•
On surfaces in unheated areas (less than 0°C),
unless using a model with a de-icer.*
ground terminal labeled
. Connect to earth
ground with 14 AWG wire that is less than 6
inches.
•
Near heat sources, such as appliances, direct
sunlight, or concealed pipes or chimneys.
5.
Align the two side tabs of the cover with the base
and snap the cover onto the base.
•
On walls subject to excessive vibration.
6.
•
In the direct path of an exhaust fan. Excessive
air movement will disperse gas before it can be
detected. If mounting in the path of excessive
airflow cannot be avoided, it will be necessary
to turn OFF air circulation for 1/4 to 1/2 hour,
4-6 times a day.
Verify the cover is securely attached to the base
by pulling on the top and bottom of the cover as
shown in Figure 2-2.
NOTE: For example, if mounted inside a motor
room, exhaust fans must be shut off during the
intervals that air samples will be tested for
refrigerant levels.
2 • MRLDS I&O Manual
NOTE: To remove the cover, grasp it along the
recesses and pull it away from the base (Figure
2-2). Alternatively, place a screwdriver into the
slots indicated in Figure 2-2 and twist.

Connecting the Gateway
Board to the Einstein or REFLECS Network
Each E2, Einstein, or REFLECS site controller that
will communicate with one or more MRLDS units must
have a Gateway Board installed on its RS485 I/O Network. For Einstein controllers, this means the Gateway
will be installed on the RS485 I/O Network; for RMCC,
BEC, BCU, and other REFLECS products, the Gateway
will be installed on the COM A or COM D network.

Wire Connections
Using shielded three-conductor network cable (Belden
#8641 or equivalent), connect the RS485 I/O Network
wire to the three-terminal connector on the Gateway board
as shown in Figure 4-9. For further information about
how RS485 networks are configured, refer to your site

located at the end of the daisy chain.
Refer to the site controller’s user manual for information about daisy chain networks and how they are terminated.
To terminate the Gateway (the Modbus jumpers should
always be terminated on the Gateway), set the receiver bus

Switches
Dip switches 6 and 7 control the baud rate at which the
Gateway communicates with the site controller on the
RS485 Network. These switches must be set to the same
baud rate setting as the controller you are using (Einstein,
RMCC, or E2), and defaults to 9600 baud. Dip switch 8
controls the baud rate at which the Gateway communicates
with the MRLDS. For 9600 baud, set dip switch 8 to the
OFF position. For 19200 baud, set dip switch 8 to the ON

4.4.5.1
BEC and RMCC Controllers
Less Than Version 2.1
Input Definitions
Locate the screen in the BEC or RMCC where sensors
are set up. This is usually a menu option in the Sensors
Menu, which may be reached from the Main Menu.
The 0-4.8V signal is a linear signal representing a measured concentration of 0-1200 PPM, and a voltage of 5.0V
indicates a fault. In order for the REFLECS to read these
voltages correctly, the REFLECS sensor inputs must be
configured as linear sensors.
Name
A name for the sensor input may be entered in the Name
field. Since each IRLDS zone is set up with two REFLECS
sensor inputs, choose names for each input that distinguish
the input’s function. For example, the sensor input set up to
read leak concentrations on zone 1 should have a name like
REFR LK ZN 01, and the input set up to monitor fault status should have a name like FAULT ZN 01.
Type
All sensor inputs connected to an IRLDS should be set
up as linear sensors. Enter (L)inear in the Type field.
Logging Interval
Locate the screens in the BEC or RMCC that are used
to define input board and points. This is usually achieved
by pressing 7 then 1 from the Main Menu. Press the
DOWN ARROW key several times until the SENS01SENS08 inputs are shown.
The 16AI connected to the IRLDS’s output terminals
must be set up in the REFLECS’s system software. If the
16AI was given a unique board number by setting the dip
switch S3, and wired to the terminals so that each zone
number corresponds to a 16AI point number (zone 01 connected to point 01, for example), these board and point addresses must now be entered into the REFLECS.
The logging interval is the amount of time between log
entries in the REFLECS’s Data Log.
When choosing a logging interval, keep in mind the
amount of time it takes an IRLDS to go through an entire
cycle of samplings. For example, a 16-valve IRLDS with
30 second sampling times for each zone takes a total of
eight minutes to sample all zones. Choosing a logging interval smaller than the IRLDS’s cycle time will simply
clutter the REFLECS data log with multiple copies of the
same sample.
4.4.5.3
Sensor Setpoints
The screen above shows how the board and point addresses for zone 1 would be set up for a 16AI board numbered 1. Both SENS01 and SENS02 are set up as 01:01 so
that SENS01 can monitor concentration and SENS02 can
monitor fault status.
Set up the remaining sensors using the instructions given above. For each point on the 16AI, set up two sensors
with the same addresses.
4.4.5.2
Sensor Setup
Locate the screen in the BEC or RMCC where sensor
set points are specified. This is usually a menu option in the
Sensors Menu, which may be reached from the Main
Menu.
After the linear sensors have been set up, the REFLECS
must be told how to interpret the linear voltage given by the
IRLDS.
Eng. Unit
The REFLECS does not require any specific engineering unit to be specified for sensor values. However, for easier reading of status screens and data logs, “PPM” should
be entered for sensor inputs that read concentration, and
Controller Setup for Modbus MRLDS
MRLDS Modbus Version (809-101x) • 13
“MV” should be entered for sensor inputs that read fault
status.

MRLDS LED Indicators
Gain and Offset
Since the output terminals emit one volt for every 250
PPM of refrigerant detected, the gain for the refrigerant
leak sensors must be set to 250 and the Offset to 0.
The sensors configured to detect faults must be given a
gain of 1000; this way, the REFLECS can be set up to
alarm whenever it detects a 5000 mV signal.
4.4.5.4
Alarm Setpoints
Locate the screen in the BEC or RMCC where sensor
alarm set points are specified. This is usually a menu option
in the Sensors Menu, which may be reached from the Main
Menu.
The REFLECS should now be capable of interpreting
the 0-4.8V output voltage as a refrigerant concentration of
0-1200 PPM and the 5V output voltage as a fault. The desired alarm set points must now be specified. When set up
correctly, alarms will appear in the REFLECS Alarm log as
“Hi Sensor” alarms (refer to the REFLECS manual for
alarm descriptions).
Alarms: High
In this field, specify a high alarm setpoint for refrigerant leak alarms between 0 and 1200 PPM. For fault status
alarms, enter a setpoint of 4960 mV (slightly below 5V, as
a precautionary measure).
Alarms/Notices Dly
The value entered in the Alarms Dly field is the number
of minutes the sensor reading must be above the
Alarms:High setpoint before the REFLECS may generate a
leak alarm
When choosing an alarm delay, keep in mind the
amount of time it takes an IRLDS to complete a sampling
cycle. For example, a 16-valve IRLDS with 30 second sampling times for each zone takes a total of eight minutes to
sample all zones. Choosing an alarm delay smaller than the
IRLDS’s cycle time will cause an alarm to be generated after only one high reading is taken.

Table 5-1 - MRLDS LED Status
For analog output models, a fault is signaled by setting
the voltage to 0.5V, which indicates the MRLDS should be
be replaced. Call the Retail Solutions Service Department
(770-425-2724) to verify if the MRLDS unit should be
replaced.

E2 Alarming
5.2.1
IRLDS Mode
If any one or all of the MRLDS sensors encounters a
problem, the IRLDS application will alarm and all cell
outputs will show NONE. For details on which individual
unit is in alarm, go to the MRLDS Gateway and check the
Status screen on the HHT.
5.2.2
16AI Mode
If an MRLDS has lost communication, the input will
go to 1250 PPM, which should force an alarm if enabled.
If all MRLDS sensors lose communication, the 16AI will
go offline. Check the Status screen on the HHT for details.
026-1307 Rev 3 06-APR-2010
5.3
Linearity Settings for Supported Refrigerants
Factors such as air movement and the proximity of the sensor to the leak will usually have a greater influence on the
reading (Rdg) than the differences in the linearity (accuracy) of the various supported refrigerants, so the alarm limits
should not have to be adjusted. However, depending on the refrigerant selection, you may want to fine tune the alarm limit
by increasing the limit for the refrigerants with linearity ranges in the 25-50 PPM range that are greater than +/- 10 PPM
to avoid alarming at too low of a count.
If the linearity range is greater than +/- 10 PPM you would increase the alarm limit by the amount it is above +/-10
PPM. For example, if your were using R-410A you may want to increase the alarm limit by 5 PPM, so an alarm limit for
R-410A of 40 PPM would be increased to 45 PPM.
